Customer Review: I heard Bon Iver playing Skinny Love live on David Letterman before falling asleep and made a mental note to myself to find out more.
I loved this song so much that January 3rd I could remember the date that Bon Iver played (December 11th).
I bought the album without previewing the... more info
Customer Review: There are only five songs on this EP, but every single song, for that matter, every note is pure perfection. I started with their debut album and took a couple of days of non-stop listening before I got hooked. A couple of weeks later, I added "Sun Giant". Since that time, I have listened to this EP... more info
Customer Review: You Form an Opinion!!!
Wow, I stumbled across this site by googling lyrics to "Evil Urges" and "Look at You", and read this review and laughed. I don't agree with what the comments "stop imitating neil young" (of whom i love) and "Listen to all their older albums NOT THIS ONE". This album has... more info
Customer Review: I'm seeing Dear Science on a lot of "best of 2008" lists. This status is well-deserved. Like the best of creative musicians, this talented group has made music that is both challenging and listenable, retaining key elements of their complex sound from an earlier, break-out cd, Return To Cookie... more info
Customer Review: This cd is a happy cd. I loved the band so much I purchased it for a couple of friends to spread the word of the band. Later on saw them featured on MTV...WAY TO GO!! I hope everyone enjoys this cd as much as I did.
Customer Review: I will be honest, this is the first Beck CD I have ever purchased. In the past I would here a track and say to myself, "wow that is so cool". It seemed like a post-modern mish mash, very unique---at first. In reality it was like Doritos...delicious at first, but not sustaining. I am glad there were... more info
Customer Review: If you have heard of Sigur Ros, do yourself a favour and listen to them and start with this album. If you have heard of them and don't like them, you are an idiot or lying. This music begs to be at the very least appreciated a great deal. For me it is more, the music carries you along and makes you... more info
Customer Review: I got "Narrow Stairs" for Christmas and am glad that I asked for it. It opens up with two great songs, "Bixby Canyon Bridge" and I Will Possess Your Heart." Obviously,the melancholy lyrics and plaintive singing of Benjamin Gibbard are the focal points. Not every song is a winner, but the songs that... more info
Customer Review: Out of nowhere comes MGMT, and they are GOOD. Every song on this album has a melody that sounds like it must have came from somewhere else, but no, it's new. They are very original... kind of a blend of 60's rock and 80's pop with modern layers of sound. I'm antsy to hear more from this band.
